For Wednesday:

-Career Project: Finish up the final draft of your Thank-You Letter if you didn't finish it in class today. It can be hand-written or printed from Google Drive. Bring it to school on Wednesday, along with the mailing address of the person you interviewed. I'll supply the envelopes and stamps.

-Talent Show: Write down 2 jokes to tell at the Talent Show. The show is Wednesday at 12:30 in the Gym. Parents are invited to attend!

-On Friday, May 15, the fourth grade class will be taking a hiking field trip to Bandelier National Monument. During the morning, we’ll take a 2 ½ mile loop hike on Tsankawi Mesa to tour Anasazi cliff dwellings. In the afternoon, we’ll have a picnic lunch, and then hike down the Frey Trail into Frijoles Canyon about 2 more miles to explore the main ruins. Students should be prepared for the elements and wear sturdy sneakers or hiking boots, and a hat to block the sun. They should also bring a small backpack with sunscreen, at least one water bottle, and their own lunch (if they didn't order a school-provided sack lunch on Monday).

The trip will cost $8 for bus transportation. Please send cash, or a check made out to the school. We were granted an educational waiver from the National Park Service for this visit, so there is no charge for our group to enter Bandelier. If we have time, we’ll stop for ice cream at the Dairy Queen in Espanola our way back to Taos, so kids should bring an extra $5 cash for that stop. Students should be at school ready to go at 8:15 a.m., and we’ll return by 5:00 p.m.

Permission slips went home with students today. Please sign those and send them back to school with your child on Wednesday or Thursday.
